Shane Warne caddies at Senior Open

Former Australia spinner Shane Warne carried the clubs for compatriot Peter O'Malley during the first round of the Senior Open yesterday.

The 45-year-old, who has been working as a pundit during the current Ashes series, helped the former Scottish Open champion to a score of two-under-par at Sunningdale.

"It was great fun out there. Peter struck the ball beautifully and it was nice to be out there with my mate," the Daily Mail quotes Warne as saying.

"I didn't do too much really, I just carried a bag and realised it got really heavy at the end. It is quite a tough walk around Sunningdale but really good fun. I'm thankful for the opportunity."

Warne retired from Test cricket in 2007.
